Ireland vs South Africa Spreads Preview

Ireland entertain South Africa in this weekend’s key match, and if you’re looking for an interesting alternative to your usual punting check out the prices offered by spread betting firm Sporting Index. They are running a large number of markets on this game plus a range of generous free bets for new clients. To give you a head start read Sporting’s Senior Rugby Market Maker remarks for his take on this clash:

“Jake White’s recent comment that only 3 of the current Ireland side could make it into the ‘Boks team have stirred things up nicely ahead of this game. Coupled with Ireland’s two defeats in South Africa this summer, it’s easy to see why the home side will have additional motivation to exact revenge. South Africa’s 2 point victory over Wales last week was mainly due to their lineout dominance, but O’Kelly and O’Connell are one of the most feared engine rooms in world rugby. The ‘Boks will find this a much tougher match. South Africa are priced up as marginal favourites for this one, but with home advantage and an expectant crowd it will be close.”
